没有必要坚持澳大利亚大陆的动物群和植物群对生物学家的兴趣和极端重要性。也许应该重申一个经常重复的警告，即这种动物和植物群正面临迅速灭绝的巨大危险。由于这两个原因，英国科学协会南澳大利亚分支在安排一系列描述南澳动植物的手册方面的进取精神值得热烈赞扬。认识到缺乏廉价和权威的作品在澳大利亚的生物学，它正确地假设是一个严重的障碍“科学在该大陆的进步，和需要更广泛的传播准确的知识这个有趣的和原始的生物社区，该协会已经集结了南澳大利亚生物学家的热情机构的服务，谁，在他们之间，策划了这一系列的手册。南澳政府提供了帮助，负责印刷和出版。由于这项开明和开明的政策，它不仅应该而且将得到澳大利亚公众的感谢，而且也得到全世界科学家的感谢。(1)南澳的哺乳动物。伍德·琼斯。第一部分：包含单孔目动物和肉食性有袋动物（Ornithodeliums和双趾Dideliums）。Pp. 131. 4先令(2)《南澳的鱼类》，埃德加R。等等Pp. 243. 6先令（《南澳植物群和动物群手册》，由英国科学协会南澳分支发行。）（阿德莱德：R.

IT is not necessary to insist on the interest and extreme importance to the biologist of the fauna and,flora of the Australian continent. It is perhaps well to reiterate the oft-repeated warning that this fauna and flora are in great danger of rapid extinction. For these two reasons the South Australian Branch of the British Science Guild is to be warmly commended for its enterprise in arranging for a series of handbooks descriptive of the animals and plants of South Australia. Realising the lack of inexpensive and authoritative works on the biology of Australia, which it rightly supposes is a severe handicap to the “progress of science in that continent, and the need for a wider diffusion of accurate knowledge of this interesting and primitive biological community, the Guild has rallied to its aid the services of an enthusiastic body of South Australian biologists, who, between them, have planned this series of handbooks. The Government of South Australia has come to its assistance by undertaking the printing and publication. For this enlightened and broad-minded policy it deserves and will receive the thanks, not only of the public of Australia, but also of scientific men the world over.(1) The Mammals of South Australia.By Dr. F.
